Guest Cats

Pan

I, Pan, am the daughter of two abandoned cats living near Masterton Hospital. I was rescued by KittyCat Rehoming. I seem shy at first but will sit next to you and watch TV with you to keep you company. I’m not too needy but like a fuss occasionally on my own terms. I would probably not like to be in a house with young children or dogs. They scare me. Other cats are fine. I can play with them if they are willing. Natasha has been my companion for as long as I can remember. I really want to stay with her forever and hope you will love her too.

Things I like:

hiding in low places, watching what you are doing

Natasha

They call me Natasha al Moustacha because of the markings on my face. I was rescued by KittyCat Rehoming from around the Masterton Hospital when I was about seven weeks old. I was quite wild at first but gained confidence in people and liked nothing more than to lie in a lap and be fussed over while watching TV. Later, I stayed for a while in a cattery, so I am shy of humans again. Maybe in the café with Pan to help me, I will become affectionate again. I would like a quiet home where I could live with Pan without dogs or small children. Is that you?

Things I like:

hiding in low places, eating

Reuben

Hi my name is Ruben. I used to be called Little Lady, but that wasn’t right because I am a boy! I am named after a friend of Ken and Richelle who had the same thing happen to him more or less. I was rescued from a property around Silverstream. My mom and aunt were rescued, de-sexed and returned. They will be cared for by the lovely couple that live there but have no more kittens. I glad I don’t have to go back. I like to be well-fed and warm, especially by fireplaces, and to be cuddled on your lap and to play with either humans or other cats. I also love to talk to you.

Things I like:

High places, warm places, your attention and good food

Sparrow (Sparrow left for a trial with Tigger!)

Hello, my name is Sparrow, one of the tabbies born of Tiny. Although I never had the troubles she did, I inherited her caution. She always told me not to take anything for granted — especially food. It took me a while to enjoy petting, but I have always liked play. When I catch something, I hold it! Once I trust you, I will enjoy your attention, but I won’t pester you about it. I like playing with you, but I can also entertain myself. I know what dogs and babies sound like, so they probably won’t freak me out if you have them in your home.

Things I like:

high places, making everything my toy, rough play with other cats and eating

Tigger (Tigger left for a trial with Sparrow!)

Hey! Tigger here! I was the smallest of Tiny’s litter but now I am bigger. My mom may not have recognized me, but you will know me by my big, sticking out ears and the scar Kaha gave me on my nose. I jump the highest and am first to get the feather toys. I will meow loudly to get what I want and follow you around because what you are doing interests me. Your bed will probably become my favorite spot to sleep. Dogs and babies were around when I was growing up so I will probably not be scared by them much.

Things I like:

shiny, jingly things, jumping high for the feather toy, rough play with other cats

Saxon

I’m Saxon, one of Sage’s brothers. You should read her story to find out how we were rescued from the dump. I wear the brown collar because I look a lot like my brother Shylo. I may hang back at first in new situations but am super playful once I feel secure. I won’t just jump in your lap like my sister, but I will ask you for petting. Loud noises don’t phase me too much, I just go to my safe place until I’m comfortable. I got used to a large dog at my first foster’s house.

Things I like:

the feather toy, petting, low hiding places.

Oscar (Oscar has a home but will stay until February 2020)

I, Oscar, was also rescued from the dump and will probably always have to overcome distrust of humans at first. I have been learning that some of you are very good. Cait Sith trained my sister and me at the Okada house. Play is the way to my heart. Once I trust you, I love to be petted and brushed. I tried to trust my first adoptive family but had to return. I’m grateful I got a second chance at the café. Next time, I need to move more slowly.
